Sharing some behind-the-scenes photos on social media, the former BBC star wore a pink tulle skirt with her new charity t-shirt that reads "Rebellious Hope" - a tagline of hers.

Deborah took to social media to announce the exciting news, writing on Instagram: "I’m so excited to finally be able to share (at least part) of a project I’ve been working on for several months now.

"Together with the @inthestyle team I’ve been creating and designing a collection of beautiful clothes to hopefully make us all look good and feel great!!!"

Deborah went on to explain that despite the main collection not being ready just yet, she noted: "although some of you will have noticed recently I’ve been sporting a whole host of beautiful floral dresses - which I can confirm were worn for my visit from Prince William!"

Deborah continued: "I cannot tell you guys how this partnership has kept me going through my hospital stays and taken me away from cancer.

"For years, I always talked about ‘Dressing up to make you feel better’ and over recent months all the ups and downs, being in and out of hospital, dressing up in nice clothes and popping on some Lippy has made a difference to my journey."

The dame then added: "Today though, as a sneak taster I wanted to share something really special…..

"As you all know I’ve always had a quote close to my heart… 'Rebellious Hope' so @inthestyle have kindly agreed with me to release a limited edition exclusive T-shirt in aid of @bowelbabefund which is available to order via the @inthestyle app NOW.

"With 100% of profits (minimum of £7.08 per t-shirt) from the sale of each one will be paid directly to BowelBabe Fund for Cancer Research UK."

Deborah then concluded: "I can’t wait (or sadly I will be leaving it up to my family and ITS) to share the rest of the collection, which I’m also excited to say that the plan for that collection is that all profits will be in aid of the Bowelbabe Fund for Cancer Research UK.

"Know that I’ve have had so much fun designing and curating everything and I hope you have just as much wearing it all x."
